Our Story:

Why Us?

Glory Lahti started sewing doll clothes and Annabel wanted to learn how to sew, so she joined her. After that they decided to have a booth at the Young Entrepreneurs Marketplace put on my Young Americans Center for Financial Education in 2011. Their first sale was a great success! So, their younger sibling Faith Lahti and Sophia Schwarz joined them. They soon found out that sewing clothes wasn't for them, so faith moved on to sewing bedding sets, and Sophia became in charge of public relations. Now Annabel and Sophia's younger sister Olivia has joined in the fun, and is learning how to sew.
